"I started working with Stephanie Kubiak in 2013 and 2014 when I started looking for an interior designer for a major home remodeling project. Stephanie impressed me with her creative and innovative design ideas that addressed the space and usage objectives and provided unique finished rooms that reflect my personal style and needs. Stephanie provided excellent multiple detailed design dimensional recommendations, with varied options and timely met the financial and time constraints involved.

It has been a pleasure to work with Stephanie, and I have highly recommended her services to friends and family. I absolutely love the results of the remodeling and look forward to working with Stephanie on the next project in my home next year."
